Finally coming out of Hibernation (sort of)

O wow! Sorry! It's been about 2 months since my last blog and after much prodding (from Alex), I'm finally here to give you guys a brief update!

Me and Chris spent a week in Alaska in July for our "honeymoon." It was fantastic. The fishing was okay (Chris caught a 38-40lb King, and I caught a whopping 10!), but the sights were beautiful. I would like to definitely move down there someday. Absolutely breathtaking! We went on a day cruise and saw lots of wildlife (whales, birds/eagles, seals and even Jellyfish!). We were also fortunate to get a couple pictures of bears (up close and personal!). It was a fantastic trip and we hope to go back again someday. Some pictures below.....


We saw whales!



There are supposed to be birds in this picture, but i don't know if you can see them.

Holy seals...that's a lot of blubber!

It was but cold outside but you know I have to take a picture with my boo....unfortunately (and surprisingly) I got motion sickness and had to buy medicine on the boat! I'm gettin' old....

Getting up close and personal with the glaciers. Here is a picture of glacier debris. They were HUGE! You could hear the ice snap, crackle and pop!

Here is the glacier. It was a MILE wide! It was absolutely beautiful. This picture does no justice....

Anyways.....we were really excited to see our wonderful sister-in-law Alex Miller get baptised into the church. The ceremony was great, and, as always, Alex made some funny comments to lighten everyone's moods :) I know that she will be blessed for the rest of her life in making this wonderful choice. We are soooo happy for her!

Robin just turned 20 years old today! She still looks like she is 16! I can't even to begin to describe how crazy old I feel. Happy Birthday to her!

I'm super excited for Halloween. It's one of my most favorite holidays! My workplace is cool and they allow everyone to dress up. I am totally going to take advantage of it.

So hopefully i'll get this blog thingy updated more frequently. The married life is wonderful and I am so thankful to have Chris in my life. He is salt to my pepper, the nougat in my Baby Ruth, my sunshine in the storm, the cream in my coffee (if I drank any). He continues to strengthen me throughout my trials, I am so thankful for his support and love.

Late!
